An enjoyable movie.

I thought that the first Naruto movie was pretty good. The plot is not the best, but it was entertaining, and the animation was good. The fights were also quite good, showing many familiar moves from the show including, Rasengan, Chidori, and Lightning Blade. The only complaint is that the princess is not the most interesting of characters and the other characters are quite forgetable, save one or two of them. I would recommend this movie to any Naruto fan, who is sure to enjoy it, but outside of that, I don't know if this movie would appeal to anyone else.moreless

This movie totally RULED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Naruto was my favorite one in this movie. Naruto had alot of action in this movie and did alot of cool jutsus. There were some sad parts and funny parts and totally awesome parts. At the end of the movie Naruto is the one who does the cool seven colored chakra and defeats the bad guys and was totally rockin. Naruto freed himself from the thing that was put on his stomach and he broke free out of it by using the nine tailed fox's chakra. He also broke free from the cell where he was tied up and kicked the bad guy's butts. And saved the princess from the train and when she ran away and he caught up to her and carried her on his back while walking.moreless

Wicked!

This whole movimit i had second thoughts on the movie. But, boy was I wrong. That first fight scene with the 3 snow ninja was so intense i Was onhe edge of my seat for the whole fight. The plot was great and not to off leading like some anime movies. I was really shocked at the quality of the animation. It look like a movie and not a extended episode. The only thing I regert is that they didn't let Naruto go nine-tailed(i like him like that!). Top notch work by the guysat viz media. I will defintly buy the dvd!moreless

Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke and Kakashi try to bring Princess Gale to the land of snow while fighting her enemies and probably bringing spring to the land of snow.

This is the first movie from the show Naruto. It's filled with a lot of fighting, acting and filming. Obviously there is fighting and filming along with the acting to film. As many movies, this one has fighting between people that are trying to do the right thing and people just trying to do the bad thing and messing up whatever that has to be done which brings me to say that the fighting in this episode was really good. There were jutsus and one on one battles. Naruto, persistent as he is, tries to get Princess Gale to the land of snow to complete his mission and the movie that the director is filming while the mission is in process. The good thing is that he didn't stop being persistent and did finish his mission and teaches Princess Gale to also be persistent. It was a great movie and what made it good was the ending, when the movie that Princess Gale stars in is over, Naruto gets are kind card from Princess Gale.moreless

NOTES (10)

At the end of this movie, Kakashi is shocked to see Princess Yukie holding a movie script to "Make-Out Paradise the Movie" and thinks she is perfect for a lead role. It was discovered that the movie would be in production in episode 101 as we saw a billboard ad for it when Squad 7 was trying to see Kakashi's face.
